St Sophia at night, a photo from Istanbul, Marmara

Photographer's Note

Real "beauties" are under any circumstances "beautiful" . No matter if taken at daylight or at night.
Like here the famous St Sophia in İstanbul, again taken from the same pov like on my yesterdays entry buyt this time in landscape format and at night !

Gerçek güzellikler her ışık koşulunda güzeldirler. İster gece olsun ister gündüz.
İstanbul'un Aya Sofyası da bu kurala uyar. Dün gönderdiğim kare gün ışığında çekilmişti, bu ise gecenin karanlığında. İster gündüz çekilmiş olsun ister gece, Aya Sofya her zaman bir başka güzel !

Mesut
La vision nocturne est encore plus belle que la vision diurne sous ce POV quasi identique. De belles couleurs chaudes.
Amicalement

Have a nice weekend

Hello Mesut,
Not completely the same POV as with the previous picture. Here the wall is still intact and there are no trees or plants that obstruct the view of the underside of the Hagia Sophia. I really love the fact that you use all opportunities to show us new and original images of the well-known Hagia Sophia.
The different colours of the illuminated building make it stand out wonderfully in the dark night.
Best regards, Paul

Hello dear Mesut,
a wonderful night view of St Sophia with excellent clarity and most effective depth and perspective. The outstanding elegance of the architecture is enhanced by the lovely lights and colours that you have captured so well against the night sky. The play of perspectives, light, shadows, warm colours and fascinating textures in the foreground renders the image more intriguing, attractive and atmospheric. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great Sunday,
Ourania
